3. Start with a one- or two-character code for a United Kingdom postal district,
such as B for Birmingham or RH for Red Hill, followed by a one- or two-digit
number to represent a sector within that district. For example, RH1 is Red Hill
district, sector 1; CM23 is the Chelmsford district, sector 23; and B1 is Birming-
ham district, sector 1. Following the district and sector is a space, followed by a
digit and two characters, such as 4GJ.
For example:
CM23 2QP
where:
CM
= Chelmsford district
23
= sector 23
2QP = a particular road.
